REcently we have been told that the current GTA 4 is being ran the 360. which is good for 360 owners. but one thing i started to notice in pics is the bad texutures. like road texures, wall texures and even building had bad texures. so it made me wonder if GTa 4 for the PC, PS3 is being watered down due to not all 360 not having HD as standard.

Any how here are some images i have circled for you to see. personally i think GTA 4 does not look next gen. the reason can be due to the 360 holding back the PC and PS3 oh well have a good day

i dont think its being held back by the xbox but i think it looks sub par for a next gen game, however i hope the gameplay is good and it looks better on your tvR-Dot-Yung

Doesnt look too bad. GTA always looked like crap. It was 2d on the PS1. It looked like an N64 game on the PS2...

I think all grand theft auto titles have mediocre graphics as a trade-off for the scale of the game. I find GTA games fun, so i guess thats all that matters to me.

It's difficult to say, really. Have screenshots of the PS3 or PC version been released?

Programmers reduce textures on far away items to reduce system loads!

And if the 360 version is going o be he least graphically superior then why do they always use i for demonstrations?

No. You're wrong. Get some sense.

If the problem is texturing, it will be only a 360-related problem. It's not like it's too much work to resize the texture to the correct resolution that the PS3 can handle.

Not to mention, the 360 is not inferior to the Ps3 when referring to texturing...

Since when was GTA about graphics? No one complained how horrible san andreas looked in comparison to the other games that were out. You have your standards set way to high just because some buildings off in the distance don't look crisp and clear you think they are holding back?

Not as much as the PS2 held back GTA3-SA, you can be sure of that.

It's not all single tracks with all of the attention focused on about 5 models like GT5, it's a large interactive city with no loading times. OF course the graphics will not be as impresive in their individual forms, but as a whole the game is impressive simply due to it being an expanisve world, not small little areas with a few enemies like GeoW or KZ2.

Graphics have always been weak for GTA, but it makes up for it with what it offers in the game. These pics look exactly like a next-gen GTA to me. Besides could you really blameRockstar for holding back GTA:IV for the 360. They are going to make more money from 360 then PS3 because their are more 360 owners than PS3 owners. Then add all the people that buy a 360 when Halo 3 comes out and the fact that they will have downloadable content for the 360 and there you go. Money makes the world go round.

what do you expect from a game with a huge city. And why can't the devs pull it out so that it will look better on ps3,huh?

Just be glad it's not on the Wii. Held back will take on a different meaning.
